1INTRODUCTION
1.1 ABOUT PELLET HEATING
Pellet stoves offer a dramatic improvement in the convenience of heating with solid fuel. Wood
pellets are handled in bags and are therefore easily and cleanly stored. A single loading of a pellet
stove can provide long hours of warmth. Pellet stoves also provide a special comfort associated with
wood burning. The combination of fans delivering warm air currents and the direct comfort of radiant
heat provides special satisfaction on a cold winter day. The heat provided is even and constant, due
to the auto fuel feed responding to owner settings. Pellet stoves also offer strong environmental
benefits; pellets not only reduce dependence on finite supplies of fossil fuels like oil and gas, but they
also put to good use materials that would otherwise unnecessarily and expensively add to our waste
disposal problems.
In addition, pellet stoves burn very cleanly and offer the lowest emissions of unwanted pollutants of
all solid fuel burning appliances.
1.1.1 TOP 10 REASONS FOR BUYING A PELLET STOVE
•Fuel is relatively cheap, easy tohandle and store
•Installation is relatively inexpensive and flexible
•Can be thermostatically controlled
•Can run for long hours without the need to refuel
•Heat output is steady because fuel feed is regulated
•Provides powerful convection heat
•Has the lowest emissions of all solid fuels
•Reduces our dependence on fossil fuels
•Pellets are a renewable fuel
•Wood pellets are made of 100% residual matter (saw dust). This creates added-value from
waste that would otherwise end up in a landfill.

PART A – INSTALLATION
2INSTALLATION SAFETY INFORMATION
2.1 INSTALLATION WARNINGS, CAUTIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
•PROFESSIONNAL INSTALLATION IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
•YOU MAY NEED TO OBTAIN A BUILDING PERMIT FOR THE INSTALLATION OF THIS STOVE AND
ITS VENTING SYSTEM. CONSULT YOUR MUNICIPAL BUILDING DEPARTMENT OR FIRE
DEPARTMENT BEFORE INSTALLATION TO DETERMINE THE NEED TO OBTAIN ONE. WE
RECOMMEND THAT YOU ALSO INFORM YOUR HOME INSURANCE COMPANY TO FIND OUT IF
THE INSTALLATION WILL AFFECT YOUR POLICY.
•THIS STOVE MUST BE CONNECTED TO A STANDARD 120V. 60 HZ GROUNDED ELECTRICAL
OUTLET. DO NOT USE AN ADAPTER PLUG OR SEVER THE GROUNDING PLUG. DO NOT ROUTE
THE ELECTRICAL CORD UNDERNEATH, IN FRONT OR OVER THE STOVE.
•IF THIS STOVE IS NOT PROPERLY INSTALLED, A HOUSE FIRE MAY RESULT. TO REDUCE THE RISK
OF FIRE, FOLLOW THE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS.
•BURNING ANY SOLID FUELS GENERATES CARBON MONOXIDE IN LOW CONCENTRATION. THIS
GAS IS EVACUATED BY THE VENTING SYSTEM. IN HIGHER CONCENTRATIONS, CARBON
MONOXIDE IS TOXIC AND MAY CAUSE DEATH. TO PREVENT THIS, ENSURE THAT YOUR VENTING
SYSTEM IS AIRTIGHT.
•THIS STOVE IS MOBILE HOME APPROVED AND REQUIRES INSTALLATION OF A FRESH AIR KIT,
SOLD SEPARATELY. THE STOVE MUST BE ATTACHED TO THE STRUCTURE OF THE MOBILE HOME
AND THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF THE MOBILE HOME FLOOR, WALL, AND CEILING/ROOF
MUST BE MAINTAINED. DO NOT INSTALL IN A SLEEPING ROOM.
•THIS STOVE IS NOT RECOMMENDED TO BE INSTALLED IN A BEDROOM.
•THIS STOVE HAS BEEN DEVELOPED AND BUILT FOR RESIDENTIAL SUPPLEMENTARY HEAT
SOURCE. COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL USE IS PROHIBITED AND WILL VOID THE WARRANTY.
•THE INFORMATION GIVEN ON THE CERTIFICATION LABEL AFFIXED TO THE STOVE ALWAYS
OVERRIDES THE INFORMATION PUBLISHED IN ANY OTHER MEDIA (OWNER’S MANUAL,
CATALOGUES, FLYERS, MAGAZINES AND/OR WEB SITES).
•CONNECT THIS STOVE ONLY TO A LISTED PELLET VENT FOR USE WITH SOLID FUEL OR TO A
LINED CHIMNEY CONFORMING TO NATIONAL AND LOCAL BUILDING CODES.
•DO NOT INSTALL A FLUE DAMPER IN THE EXHAUST VENTING SYSTEM OF THIS UNIT.

7000 Pellet Stove Installation and Operation Manual
10________________________________________________________________________________________________
•DO NOT CONNECT THIS STOVE TO ANY OTHER EXISTING VENTING SYSTEM SERVING ANOTHER
APPLIANCE.
•DO NOT CONNECT TO OR USE IN CONJUNCTION WITH ANY AIR DISTRIBUTION DUCTWORK.
•THE VENTING SYSTEM MUST BE COMPLETELY AIRTIGHT AND PROPERLY INSTALLED. ALL VENT
CONNECTOR JOINTS MUST BE SEALED AND FASTENED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PELLET VENT
MANUFACTURER'S INSTRUCTIONS TO ENSURE CONSISTENT PERFORMANCE AND AVOID SMOKE
AND ASH SPILLAGE.
•THE VENTING SYSTEM SHOULD BE CHECKED, AT LEAST TWICE A YEAR FOR ANY BUILDUP OF
SOOT OR CREOSOTE.
•NEVER BLOCK ANY LOUVERS OF THE STOVE.
•IF REQUIRED, A FRESH AIR KIT CAN BE INSTALLED TO SUPPLY COMBUSTION AIR TO THE ROOM
OR SPACE (SEE APPENDIX F: COMBUSTION AIR SUPPLY).
•MIXING OF APPLIANCE COMPONENTS FROM DIFFERENT SOURCES OR MODIFYING
COMPONENTS IS PROHIBITED AND WILL VOID THE WARRANTY.
•ANY MODIFICATION OF THE STOVE THAT HAS NOT BEEN APPROVED IN WRITING BY THE
TESTING AUTHORITY IS PROHIBITED AND VIOLATES CSA B365 (CANADA), AND ANSI NFPA 211
(USA).
•STOVE BUILDER INTERNATIONAL INC. (SBI) GRANTS NO WARRANTY, IMPLIED OR STATED, FOR
